Where do you position your hot water bottle? By your feet, legs or torso?

Feet!

DramaAlpaca · 13/01/2019 23:21

Under my feet, as they are always the bit I find hardest to get warm. If my feet are cold I can't sleep.

lynnepot · 13/01/2019 23:26

So am I the only one who cuddles my hot water bottle then? To be fair it is a teddy bear hot water bottle Grin

Torso!! Sometimes it’s too hot though. But I like curling around it

Waddsup12 · 13/01/2019 23:27

Under my hip, unless it's a double bottle day, so one at foot & one under back.

AnyFucker · 13/01/2019 23:28

I lie on my side and put it between my knees or up the front of my nightshirt Smile

PerkingFaintly · 13/01/2019 23:29

Feet! Unless I'm so cold I need to thaw my way down from the knees...

halfwitpicker · 13/01/2019 23:29

On lap like a cat when on the sofa, next to torso when in bed.

elQuintoConyo · 13/01/2019 23:31

I put it at the bottom of the bed while I brush my teeth, then when I'm in bed it's in my stomach we hold I'm on MN

I sleep curled around it. It's SO FLUFFY!

On my chest, or cuddled in to my body. DH gives me a row every time in case it bursts and I get burnt!

Tailfeather · 13/01/2019 23:34

I lie on mine. Front down under my tummy.

StillMedusa · 13/01/2019 23:35

I lie face down with it tucked under my stomach as I have IBS. I NEVER sleep without one, not even in summer!

donttakethebiscuit · 13/01/2019 23:37

I’ll usually cuddle mine too, always have a hot water bottle on my belly. It’s the best way

OnlineAlienator · 13/01/2019 23:38

Clamped to my lower back for terrible hip/back pain Envy

sunshineandshowers21 · 13/01/2019 23:38

i have two. one on my feet and the other on my back, tucked down the back of my pants!

AwdBovril · 13/01/2019 23:40

I put it in bed where my torso would go, to warm the bed while I'm brushing teeth etc. Then I usually lay on my side & have it behind my knees so it keeps my legs & feet warm.

lynnepot · 13/01/2019 23:40

gloaty a long sausage shape hot water bottle? You are having us on here surely Grin

Cuddled into my tummy.

Ezzie29 · 13/01/2019 23:45

If I have one when on the sofa it’s for my bad back so behind my back. If I’ve got a sciatica flare up then instead I’ll have one on my hip and one on my thigh.
In bed I have one on my feet and I cuddle one. I always had a hot water bottle for my feet growing up but I dunno, at some point I stopped and kind of forgot they existed until I had to use them for my bad back. Having two of a night instead of one was a revelation and I wouldn’t go back now!

GloatyMcGloatface · 13/01/2019 23:46

Its £8 in Dunelm or you can pay £24.99 in argos.

I could get 3 in Dunelm then!

They also do a curved one fpr the neck in Dunelm, it gets better.

GloatyMcGloatface · 13/01/2019 23:49
